Construction begins on new DeCicco & Sons at Sleepy Hollow's Edge-on-Hudson community

There's a lot going on at Edge-on-Hudson in Sleepy Hollow, but for foodies there's only one thing to know: work on the new family-owned and operated DeCicco & Sons market is in full swing after a host of COVID and supply chain issues slowed them down.

Construction began in August and is expected to be finished in the next 16 months. This will be the company's 11th store, having locations in Ardsley, Armonk, Bedford, Brewster, Eastchester, Harrison, Larchmont, Millwood, Pelham and Somers.

The new market will deploy a series of green initiatives for both construction and operation and is set to be built to LEED certification standards, keeping energy efficiency at the top of mind. Market operations will include a natural refrigeration system, with heat expelled from refrigeration being recycled for use as the market’s heat and hot water in cold weather months. DeCicco & Sons will also install the company’s largest solar array to date.

The DeCicco & Sons is the first retail construction underway at the expansive 70-acre mixed-use community. The project, located along the Hudson River, has expanded to meet demand. Its first phase — condominiums by Toll Brothers — sold out prior to construction. Also almost sold out: Nearly 92 townhomes. More than 98% of 425 apartment residences have also been leased.

Moving into its second phase, the master development team of Biddle Real Estate Ventures and PCD Development announced a series of new retail and residential construction projects on-site. They include:

  • The Sales Gallery for waterfront condominium residences at The Daymark opened in July with building completion set for spring 2025. Currently under construction and led by Houston-based Hines as development manager, it's the first building directly on the waterfront and will add 100 new homes to the community.

  • Site work began in August for 90 new townhomes and a clubhouse by Sun Homes. This new neighborhood borders both Kingsland Point Park and the new Tappan Zee Park and features park and river views. Sales are anticipated to begin in the first quarter of 2024.

  • Plans for a medical office building are set to be presented to the Village of Sleepy Hollow Planning Board later this fall.

  • Planning for new parkland and open space is underway following the opening of phase one of the Sleepy Hollow RiverWalk, which restored access to a section of shoreline that had been closed for more than a century.
